On Nov. 23, 1965, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. addressed a crowd of 3,000 at the UW-Madison Stock Pavilion. The speech was titled “The Future of Integration,” and in it, he first addressed the idea of “constructive integration.”
We'll hear excerpts from the speech, including how Blacks were treated in the legal system, particularly in the South, and his belief in the power of non-violence.
